Betsy Border Collie Mix Springfield, MO

Great things come in small packages, and I'm a small package full of beauty, smarts and potential! I'm Betsy, a 7-month-old Border Collie mix girl. Talk about intelligent. . . I'm already learning the ins and outs of house and crate training. . . and. . .I just got accepted into the Pups for Parole canine training program! I've already left for 'prison' where I'm learning even more. . . about everything! Some dogs love me, and some don't, so slow intros when meeting new dogs is important. Respectful kids are a good thing. Cats? I've met a few, and wasn't super impressed. I might be able to live with them, with supervision.

I will need a home with a fenced yard, and a family who is loving, patient and fully committed to continuing my training. Dogs like me need a job, a purpose, to be fulfilled. There are literally no limits to the greatness I can achieve. I just can't do it on my own. I need a partner for life so I can reach my full potential. If that sounds like you, here's the adoption link: www.rescueonespringfield.com/our-adoption-process/adoption-application/

***PS I am currently enrolled in the Pups for Parole training program. Upon graduation, I will have all the basic training necessary to make a great companion. I will need a family willing to continue my training, I sure don't want to forget all that I learned!***

**As a reminder, puppies will need lots of time and attention during the first year. Before adopting me, please make sure that you have enough time, energy and commitment to devote to my training. Puppies need a lot of care, so everyone in your household should be on board and ready to help out**

**Rescue One is unable to provide an exact prediction of how big or small your rescue puppy will become when full grown. Any approximation provided is no guarantee.**
